I also printed tried printing shipping on paypal Oct 28 2009, for $12.24 and made a mistake on first try and was billed double for one package when label printed second time. I receive a note that it would take up to 15 days for refund. Instead, within a week I received a notice that USPS denied my refund. Buyer or seller protection does not seem to be a concern of ebay or paypal as long as they can make more money off of people with a lot of redtape so people give up. Time is worth money too, bickering with ebay and paypal. Don't ever expect satisfaction when dealing with either parties. None take responsibilty for how their site is run. Fact is, I know more ex-ebay and paypal users in my town than who use it. ebay and paypal have a bag of tricks to avoid parting with a red cent. Paypal changed the shipping label print format from how it used to be. When you cancel, you have to click reprint, not print another label. My account information clearly shows one postage shipped and the other not. It doesnt take a genius to realize they ripped you off and none of the 3 parties, USPS, ebay or paypal will ever refund a red cent after they've taken it. Never seen it happen in past disputes. In Jan 2007 I quit selling on ebay because I paid my fees with paypal. Ebay double charged my fees, went into my bank account causing 2 overdrafts. I spoke in person to paypal rep, probably in India and they contacted ebay. Nothing was resolved and a $40+ fee cost me over $150 from paypal, ebay and my bank who said it was my fault for giving ebay my bank information (required on ebay and paypal to be a seller), so if we as sellers don't give them bank info we have no forum. Ebay even fined me an additional $10??? Who'd figure? So don't expect paypal or ebay to ever do anything on your behalf. It will never happen and Ive heard plenty of horror stories. The worst that can happen to you is all the time holding your breath waiting for action. it isn't going to happen. Just be careful everytime you use one of thee services because there are no refunds. It's a lie. Even if youknow that hey will treat you like this, overall the communication is better than Craigs List, that is free, but is targeted at you with scammers. Take a break from selling if you need to steam about the issue. I am. Thats fees ebay and paypal won't get if they had been fair and square in the first place. Being dishonest in business costs business from people who get burned.
